Reasonable restrictions on the freedom of fishing in high seas marine protected areas from an international law perspect...
Published in Frontiers in Marine Science
With the development of marine protected areas (MPAs) on the high seas in the international community and an international agreement protecting biodiversity beyond national jurisdiction, how to reasonably restrict the freedom of fishing in the high seas MPAs has become a controversial issue in theory and in practice. This article will use doctrinal...
Shark bycatch of the acoupa weakfish, Cynoscion acoupa (Lacèpede, 1801), fisheries of the Amazon Shelf
Published in Frontiers in Marine Science
In recent years, the populations of many shark species have been depleted drastically around the world. In the present study, we analyzed the shark bycatch in the monthly landing data of the acoupa weakfish (Cynoscion acoupa) gillnet fisheries of the state of Pará, on the northern coast of Brazil, between January 1995 and December 2007. Based on 4,...
Policy issues and options in aquatic food systems: Review of frameworks, tools, and studies
Although policies can be critical constraining or enabling factors for aquatic food systems (AqFS) development, scarce evaluation of the impacts of existing policies means that decision-makers have limited understanding of how to improve the design and implementation of effective policies. This paper reviews key policy issues in AqFS and how they h...

The Genetic Population Structure of Lake Tanganyika's Lates Species Flock, an Endemic Radiation of Pelagic Top Predators...
Published in The Journal of heredity
Understanding genetic connectivity plays a crucial role in species conservation decisions, and genetic connectivity is an important component of modern fisheries management. In this study, we investigated the population genetics of four endemic Lates species of Lake Tanganyika (Lates stappersii, L. microlepis, L. mariae, and L. angustifrons) using ...
Reproductive Dynamics of the Large Yellow Croaker Larimichthys crocea (Sciaenidae), A Commercially Important Fishery Spe...
Published in Frontiers in Marine Science
The large yellow croaker Larimichthys crocea (Richardson, 1846) (Sciaenidae) is distributed in southern Yellow Sea, East China Sea, and northern South China Sea of China and is a commercially important nearshore fishery species. L. crocea was listed on the IUCN Red List as “Critically Endangered” in 2020 mainly due to the over-exploration of its sp...
A genetic assessment of the population structure and demographic history of Odontamblyopuslacepedii (Perciformes, Ambly...
Published in ZooKeys
Coupled with geological and geographical history, climatic oscillations during the Pleistocene period had remarkable effects on species biodiversity and distribution along the northwestern Pacific. To detect the population structure and demographic history of Odontamblyopuslacepedii, 547-bp fragments of the mitochondrial DNA control region were seq...
Barriers to Achieving Conservation Engineering Goals in Commercial Trawl Fisheries
Published in Frontiers in Marine Science
The advancement of conservation practices in global trawl fisheries has been impeded in part by a lack of a collective understanding of the most relevant and broad-scale knowledge-needs, along with the identification of potential barriers to addressing these knowledge-needs. Using both an online survey and an in-person workshop, we engaged a divers...
A classification framework for interspecific trade-offs in aquatic ecology.
Published in Conservation biology : the journal of the Society for Conservation Biology
Un Marco de Clasificación para Compensaciones Interespecíficas en Ecología Acuática Resumen En algunos casos, los objetivos del manejo de fauna dirigidos a muchas especies pueden entrar en conflicto entre sí creando compensaciones entre las especies. Para que los manejadores identifiquen efectivamente estas compensaciones y eviten sus resultados no...
